"The minute I heard my first love story, I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was.
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along."

The art of sadness.
Ugh.
Emotions. Always needed to be felt. Always wanting to be felt.
So fussy, so complicated.
Ugh.

Blind-sighted.
Oh, Hello.
...why do I always have this awkward feeling every time I start to write again? Blegh.
It's been 3 months since the last time I've posted anything. Well its not like I haven't tried; I have. Its just I end up clicking the 'X' button on the right corner before actually pressing the Publish button.
This past week has been quite an emotional ride. It's like I'm battling against my own emotions; which in the end just tires me out and gets me all grumpy and not exactly fun to be with. I pity the boyfriend the most. *sigh*
So anyways, I saw something while on the train home today which really got me thinking.
I saw a blind lady with her husband.
Her husband was ushering her to one of the empty seats for her to sit at.
I wasn't staring, I swear. And it wasn't like I haven't seen situations like that before; but somehow this time it felt so different. Like I said, I have been a roller coaster of emotions this past week. It got me thinking to stuff like how I'm actually really lucky to be able to see. And I don:t mean like the whole be able to see the world and all its glory stuff but to actually be able to see the people you love. I mean imagining waking up one day and not being able to see your parents? Not being able to see your boyfriend/girlfriend? Not being able to see your cat, even! It actually got me thinking to a point where I actually think I would be able to deal with not being able to see the person because of a loss more than to know that the person you love is just sitting a mere inches next to you and to not be able to see their smile, the squint in their eyes when they laugh, the different expressions they make when their talking...that just really got to me.
Okay so I admit, the thought of it actually teared me up for a while but I didn't want to be seen as the crazy girl who randomly cried in the LRT; so I managed to hold it together.
And thus here I am blogging while eating a box of strawberry flavored Pocky with a new sense of thankfulness for the life that I have been given. I am forever thankful. I am thankful to God for giving me the chance to experience something not exactly everybody is able to do. Its really good to be reminded, sometimes.
Maybe He just wants me to remember to never forget to appreciate everything, and everyone.
So 2013 resolution number one;

make sure everyone around me knows how much I appreciate their presence in my life.
...so please don't hang up on me if I happen to randomly call you up and scream out 'I love you' :)
